A blend of psychological terror, mystery, and supernatural the beginning will draw you in, but the ending leaves you breathless.
When Charlene Abbott is five months pregnant an ultrasound reveals she is carrying conjoined twins. In an effort to avoid questions and gossip in the small town of Sheffield, IA, where everyone knows everything about everybody, Charlie and her husband Clint opt to give birth to their daughters in Omaha, Nebraska.
When their baby girls are born, Charlie and Clint name their first-born children Miracle, and the smallest baby Faith.
Three days later, Faith passes away and surgeons perform a delicate eight-hour separation operation.
Clint, Charlie, along with Charlie's parents, feel it's best not to tell Mira (Miracle) about Faith until she is old enough to understand.
Six years later, Mira's personality begins to change from a happy, curious child to sullen, withdrawn, and angry. And when she tells Charlie her name is not Mira but Faith, a cold chill races down Charlie' spine.
As Mira grows more and more aggressive toward Charlie, slowly tearing their once close family apart, Charlie and Clint seek professional help. But when all psychological, neurological, and physical tests come back normal, Charlie knows something is happening that is beyond the realm of human knowledge and reaches out to renowned parapsychologist Winston Fry, III for help.
But when Winston comes face-to-face with the powerful force slowly taking control of Mira, he realizes he's entered unchartered territory far beyond even the most sophisticated medium's expertise.
A unique concept that reminds me of something Lois Duncan would write.
book had me from the very beginning.
Shursen is a master of thrillers.;
I read non-stop as I couldn't put it down.
I cannot wait to read this authors next book.
All of this author's books are great reads, but this one is outstanding.
WOW is all I can say. Miracle is a totally absorbing read, from start to finish!!
The antagonist had me yelling at her in my head and I felt the emotions of Charlie strongly.
The plot line is (for me) very possible.
The twists and turns in this book are amazing and unanticipated.
